Why doesn't the United States recognize Hedy Lamarr?

There may be many reasons why the United States does not recognize Hedy Lamarr, and there is no exact official statement or document to explain the reasons.

However, there are some opinions that this may be related to Hedy Lamarr's life in Hollywood. She is a talented actress, scientist and inventor, who invented "spread spectrum communication technology", which is considered as the basis of modern wireless communication technology. Although her acting skills are widely praised, her life and personality have been controversial in Hollywood.

At the same time, the United States is also one of the largest wireless communication markets in the world, so the spread spectrum communication technology in Hedy Lamarr has had a great impact on the development of wireless communication technology in the United States. It does not rule out the possibility that the United States will not recognize Hedy Lamarr for its own benefit.

These are all possible speculations. The specific reasons why the United States does not recognize Hedy Lamarr may involve many aspects, or there may be only one main reason, but at present, these are just speculations and there is no conclusive evidence to support them.
